GRAMMAR NOTES

 

Welcome to the Grammar Notes section. This part is necessary to explore the other sections and to create your own stories. You probably will need some help in grammar, drafting, narrative structure, among other elements. So, here we go.



​

What do you think you need to tell your story? Well, we have included some grammar tools to help you with this process.

First, we have everything you need to know about the narrative structure. All about an intro, a plot and an ending. You will explore some examples we will provide and some explanations that have been designed for you. 

Second, you will find a list of connectors and some examples illustrating how to use them in context. You will read several parts of real stories to observe how events are articulated in a story.  

Third, what about one of the most important things in storytelling... How do your characters look like? How do they behave? Here, we are talking about descriptions! That's one of the main elements of a story, to make your readers feel the story through all their senses: sound, sight, smell, touch and taste. In order to get these important details in your story, you must know how to use adjectives. And again, don't worry, we will help you to explore the correct way to use them and enrich your narration. 

​Finally, we can´t put aside grammar. This is an important component to make your story understandable and to be correct in spelling and grammar. Maybe you already know these tenses: past continuous, past perfect and simple past. Nevertheless, we considered it important to emphasize the use of these tenses in the storytelling context and to review these topics to help you improve your English skills.
